AI Avatars
What is an AI avatar?
A digital presenter created with AI that can speak and appear in videos. It can look like you, like a photorealistic person, or like an illustrated character.
Will people know it's AI?
Well-made avatars look natural and polished. You choose the style, and you approve everything before it's posted.
Can the avatar look like me?
Yes. We can create a realistic avatar from photos and video of you, or an illustrated version if you prefer.
Do I have to be on camera?
No. That's the point. Once your avatar is built, you don't need filming days.
AI Content & Ads
Do you run my ads?
We run ads on ChatGPT. For Meta, TikTok, Google, and other platforms, we create the ad creative and you or your ads team run the campaigns.
What are ChatGPT ads?
Ads that appear inside ChatGPT, so your business can show up when people ask for recommendations or information related to what you offer.
What platforms is the content for?
Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube Shorts, and ad platforms like Meta and Google.
Can you use my existing brand style?
Yes. We match your colors, tone, and look.
How fast can I get content?
Turnaround depends on the project; we'll give you a timeline on your free call.

An AI assistant that automatically replies to new leads by text or chat, answers questions, and helps them book.

Yes. It replies any time a lead comes in.
Can I take over a conversation?
Yes. You can step in at any time.
Does it work with my booking system?

AI Search & GEO
What is GEO?
Generative engine optimization: improving how AI tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI understand and recommend your business.
Is GEO the same as SEO?
No. They overlap, but GEO focuses on being cited in AI-generated answers, not only ranking in search results.
Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend me?
No one can guarantee AI recommendations. We improve the signals AI tools use so you're more likely to be included.
How do I check if AI recommends my business?
Ask ChatGPT or Gemini who the best [your service] near you is. On our free call, we'll run this check with you.
